Letter writers are asked to commit to writing one letter per month to their pen pal. Writers can choose between sending snail mail letters or messaging their pen pal through an electronic messaging app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During the Zoom session we will go over some basics of how this project works, introduce members of the team who are here to support you, and talk about how to get started with writing. These sessions are for informational purposes only and potential writers will decide after the session whether they want to move forward with this commitment.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div
